Photos with TS-E 24 II pixelated in LR4

Today I realized that photos made with my Canon 5DMkII & TS-E 24 II are very pixelated in LR4.2, not only on the screen (also in develop mode), but also in the jpg-outputs. Using DPP does not show this issue, so it looks like a problem with ACR, esp. the new ones - with 2003 it was quite ok, but with 2010 it got bad, and with 2012 even worse.
Anybody else experienced this?
LR 4.2 process 2013:
LR 4.2 process 2003:
converted using Canon DPP:
Sharpening is not the point, even with no sharpening at all the pixels are still visible.

Thanks a lot for your checks and fast response!
I'm using an Eizo CG243W with hardware calibration - there is no sharpening option that I am aware of, and the tests on the site you linked look perfect. I am very sure that the screen is not the issue. Beside this, I have the same effect on another PC (an you also see it on your screen).
I had also the UV-filter in mind, for these test shots I used the TS-E 24 II both with and without the filter - no difference at all.
I am shooting with RAW + jpg, and the jpg files look nearly identical. I'd say there are a tiny bit more halos next to the branches on the TS-E 24 II shots, but really nothing to complain about.
To me it seems (still) pretty clearly to be an Adobe issue. Here another example, same shots - shown 2:1 to make it just clearer. Looks at this mess, this is really not useable... it looks just like LR stops before the very last step to demosaic the photo completely - not only the branches, check the diagonal lines of the house!
(btw: the "insert image" button of the upload functionality here does not always work...?)
And here the same again with the EF 17-40 to compare:
The comparison you made might be a bit better, but honestly it looks still not acceptable to me.
Now, can it be the lens? Doubtful, as the in-camera jpgs are fine... of course I could give the lens (with the camera) to Canon for check, but I do not want to waste my money for nothing...

  • BUG: Unable to publish any photo with a width or height 800 pixels.

    My first attempts to publish a Photo page resulted in an alarmingly consistent: "Publish error: an error occurred while publishing file {filename}.jpg". These are standard .jpgs from a variety of digital cameras which I've been putting up on various photo pages using Homepage directly in .Mac, so one would think that they would work in iWeb without a hitch.
    Well.... it just doesn't work, and it stalls as soon as it hits "Uploading Photos..." before I eventually get the "Publish error" described above.
    This appeared to be file dimensions related (I was able to get a much smaller image to publish), so I investigated.
    A file that's 667 wide by 1000 high fails every time. Scale down to 334 x 500, it works. Trying some sizes in between: 534x800 works. 666x999 fails. (567x850 fails. 550x825 fails. 534x801 fails.
    So my guess is, it's looking like any picture with a dimension greater than 800 pixels on either side will fail. Let's test this.
    Stretching the image to 800x800: It works!
    Stretch it again to 801x800: It fails!
    The verdict: can't publish a photo with a width or height > 800 pixels.
    (Bug)
    Apple: please fix this....! It's possible to work around this for now, but this is totally undocumented and not very friendly...!

  • How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s? And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.

    How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s?
    And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.
    I have been using the standard camera on the iPhone and require 300 dpi to create photo books as the photos are resized according the layout.
    Your time and assistance in appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks Tonefox!
    After looking at a few of the links I found a mathematical equation that assisted me.
    Inches = Pixels/DPI
    eg: 3 inches = 300 pixels/100 DPI
    Using this equation and the fact that iPhone 4s takes photos that are 3264 x 2448 I was able to work out the largest print I could make with 300 DPI.
    Width 3264 pix/ 300 DPI = 10.88 inches
    Height 2448 pix/ 300 DPI = 8.16 inches
    Therefore, the largest print (with 300DPI) I can make of these photos is 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches.
    Which is great!
    So is it critical for me to change the dpi in say photoshop or does it not matter as long as I don't go above the 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches?
    From what I can gather the smaller I resize the photo the higher the DPI and the bigger I stretch the photo the lower the DPI?
    Further clarification will be much appreciated. Thanks

  • Best method to seamlessly swap someone's face in a group photo with their face in another photo?

    A band hired me to do a photoshoot of them and it was my first time shooting a band professionally so I was and still am quite nervous about the photos turning out well, especially since they're a well known group and the pictures will be published in a magazine and spread around a lot and attributed to me.  The issue I'm posting here about is that all of the best shots I got of the group are good except for one member who will either be making a weird expression or has their eyes closed.  I took a lot of photos but I didn't really get any where each member of the group looks good in the same photo; they each look good throughout the set of photos, just not all at once in one photo.  What I'd like to do is replace that member's face in the otherwise good photo with her face from another photo from the shoot where her eyes aren't closed or she has a better expression...but I feel like I'm playing with fire by doing this since I really don't want it to be obvious that I photoshopped it in any way, either to the band or anyone who views the photos later on.
    I'm decent with Photoshop but I'd still like to know what the best method of doing this would be so that it looks as natural/unaltered as possible.  Any suggestions?
    Also, the photos I'd be switching the faces in were mostly shot from the same angle and with the same lighting and exposure but a few were shot from slightly different angles or the exposure is slightly different, which makes it more difficult.  If, for example, due to flash settings the photo I'm trying to paste a face into (let's call it Photo A) is slightly brighter than the photo I'm trying to copy the face from (Photo B), what's the best way to merge/adjust the two so that the brightness levels in Photo A and the layer from Photo B are as similar as possible?
    (I'm using PS CS6)

    Ideally, if you have several shots from the same place, with that band member's head in a similar angle, you could do something like this:
    1.  Choose the Polygonal lasso tool.
    2.  Set it to feather a few pixels.
    3.  Select around the facial features in the image with the good face.
    4.  Paste the good face on the otherwise good background and move it into position over the bad face.
    5.  Set it to be partially transparent to help you align it.  Use Edit - Free Transform to rotate or scale it if it's off a little.
    6.  Make it fully opaque, and use Curves, etc. to perfectly match the exposure, if it's off a little.
    Clearly you can do this with the mouth, eyes, whole face, etc.
    Example:

  • I just order 8 calendars from iPhoto and they came to me fine. Now I need to order two more but when I go thru the process I get a message  saying:unable to assemble calendar. There is a probleme with the photo with the file name"(Null)"   more........ .

    Would someone be able to explain to me the following issue with Iphoto?
    I ordered 8 same calendars for my soccer team and received them fine. Although a couple of pictures on it are a little off (out of focus). I need to order two more of the same calendars but when I go thru the process ireceive an error message saying:
    "Unable to to assemble  calendar" There is a problem with the photo with the file name "(Null)" The full resolution version of this photo either cannot be located or is corrupt. Please replace this photo or delete it from your calendar.
    How can  I fine this "corrupt" photo? How did it go thru with the first batch of calendars but won't go thru now?
    Thank you for your help.   

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start
    with Option #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • IPhoto imports photos with wrong dates even if the dates are fine on the camera

    Hi!
    When I import photos with iPhoto, sometimes it imports them with wrong dates, even the dates are fine on the camera. It puts dates such as 2032. Does anyone know how can I fix that. As far as I know there is no way to change dates of the photos.
    Thanks!

    well that is very confusing since if the date is correct on the camera it will be correct in iPhoto
    and as to
    As far as I know there is no way to change dates of the photos.
    Try looking through your iPhto menus - two commands - adjust time and date and batch change time and date - asjust is used to correct incorrect dates like a comera setting -   Batch change for missing dates like with scans

  • How to share photos with multiple iPads

    I am looking to share my photos with other family members who have iPads. How can I "publish" photos that will sync to multiple devices over WiFi?  In other words, I want to push photos of my children to their grandparents (as simple as possible for the grandparents)

    Wifi will only work if they are al on the same wireless network.  An easier solution might be dropbox.  You can post your pictures there, share the link with anyone who you want to see the pictures, and they can bring them onto their machines.  This will work with family members who do not have pads, on any device that can acccess the web. 
    I believe you can set up an account for free.

  • How can i see photos with apple tv from my time capsule files?

    I have photos in my time capsule and i want to display them on my apple tv without a computer. Some sort of browsing in my time capsule from apple tv. Both are in the same wifi net, which uses time capsule as basis,

    Unfortunately, you cannot do that. In order to share photos with your Apple TV, you need to select them through the advanced menu of iTunes on your computer.

  • I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter.  If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
    How large a date change are you putting in?  iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time.  If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
    If that is not the case:
    Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
    Let me know the results.

    I have lightroom 5.7. Now I have apple TV to connect my Mac to the TV scree. I wish to do a slide show on the TV. However, on the Mac, using ITunes to share photos with the TV, I cannot locate all photo files. What is the best way to save the slide show and put it where the Mac sharing can find it? So far, I made on one folder in Lightroom, put some photos there and I found them easily. Can this be done with a slide show? Please help quickly! Also worried that the photos I put on the new folder are hard to find afterwards, when the show is done. Where do they go when I delete from from the new folder?I am not alone

    Not that I'm aware of. You just export JPEG copies to a folder that you can point iTunes to. For instance, I have created a folder in my Pictures folder called Apple TV. And within that folder I have other folders of pictures that I can choose from in iTunes to share with Apple TV. But there doesn't seem to be any way to share a Lightroom slideshow. If you have laid to create a video file that would probably work. Apple TV is a little clunky in my opinion. Some things are a little more difficult to do now than they were a while back. I probably haven't provided you with much help, but just keep experimenting and I think you will figure it out.

  • How do i view photos in macbook pro, and while viewing how can i delete the unwanted photos with delete button?

    1 My questions are about viewing and managing photos from a folder.
    a. How do i view photos in macbook pro - i know the space bar thingy but does not help my purpose?
    b. While viewing how can i delete the unwanted photos with delete button?
    c. How can i increase the size of the photos that i am seeing in the form of icons?

    double clicking in iPhoto will open the photo.
    The left and right arrow key will move between photos, as well as swiping on a trackpad or Apple mouse.
    See >System Preference>Trackpad or mouse  for options and tut
    While selected or in the smaller icon view hitting the Delete key will delete the pic.
    Command Z will undo the last action taken.
    Periodically you have to empty the iPhoto trash.  iPhoto drop down menu>empty trash
    Same applies for viewing pics in a Folder NOT in iphoto,  Use the up and down arrows does not work in Preview, but as you know in QuickLook (spacebar) the up and down arrows will navigate.
